52 Kârâdhisa, (Küratta var), Vatsyanatha (Naḍâdûrâlvâr) and Vâdhûlanâtha (Mudaliyanḍân) became his disciples while there alone. Râmânuja, Indra among ascetics, became to them the bestower of Sankha and Chakra marks and the secrets of the faith.
53 Then Yádavaprakasa, purified by the look of Yamunarya, became a disciple of Râmânuja with the appellation GovindaYogi. He composed a book treating of the rule of ascetic life (Yati-Dharma Samuchchayam).
54 On a particular occasion Srirangarajârya (Tirurangapperamajarayer) went to Kanchi and worshipping Varada started towards Srirangam in company with Râmânuja.
55 Yatiraja, accompanied by Kurééa and other disciples of the first degree and other disciples besides, desirous of paying his respects to the elders of the sect went to Srirangam, worshipping God at Madurantakam on the way.
56 Ramanuja, reverenced with garland and accompaniments, presented by those who went forward to receive him by order of God Ranganatha, worshipped Sri (Lakshmi) and then Ranganatha, and lived there at the head of the temple management.
57 Thinking that all his greatness, both here and hereafter, was due to the kindness of Mahapura, Ramanuja, reverencing Mahapurṇa, lived at Srirangam doing obedience to his preceptor.
58 Afterwards under command of Mahápurna, Râmânuja doing obeisance at the feet of Gôshthipurna (Kôttiyûr Nambi) gained initiation into the meaning of the Mantra and the Charama Slôka.11 He then explained these secrets to a large number of his followers.
59 Understanding the inward thought of Râmânuja (Yati Sarvabhauma) and holding him and his principle in high esteem, Goshthipûrna considering that thereafter the particular darśana (religion) should be Lakshmana darśana, remained delighted.
11 Gita, Ch. XVIII 66, and the last of three referred to in note 3.
